Well, Jedi did it. He bagged the perfect phoon. I've had it enlarged to a 24 x 36 poster to hang in my classroom, and bought a 10 x 15 for him. He's going to come in and do a slide show of his Caribbean vacation this week and I'll surprise him with it.
See, when you work so intensely with kids in extracurriculars, you develop these parallel relationships, as a colleague penned them. You get close and you share life and it's all cool. His wonderful girlfriend suffers from depression also, and I've tried to give him some tips on how to cope with it all. But he's a great guy and already knew it all.
He's going to school for neurosciences and journalism here close to home, and I'm sure we haven't heard the last of him. I'm so lucky to make acquaintances with young adults like him.
And Ranae has been running wild lately and I haven't seen my yearbook editor-in-chief much. But she promises to rectify that beginning tomorrow.
It always comes back to that damn yearbook.
